Newest Developer Diary For Elemental: Fallen Enchantress Teaches Us Some Lore

This year hasn’t gotten too far along yet, but we can already see it’s going to be a big year for strategy titles. That’s good news for Stardock, because they’ve really been working on their newest title, Elemental: Fallen Enchantress. This upcoming strategy game has gotten some attention, and the developers are working on keeping players up to speed with progress. They’ve released a series of developer diaries for the game, and the latest diary has officially released.

Elemental: Fallen Enchantress is a turn-based strategy game set in the fictional world known as Elemental (go figure, right?). In the game you play the role as one of a few beings capable of channeling magic from within the various shards of power that lay scattered throughout the world. Because of this, many look to you for leadership to help spread your rule and civilization across the vast land.

In the latest developer diary we learn more about the game’s core rules and inset lore. Stardock teaches us how to manage our channeling abilities in order to cast powerful spells and help bring back some of the magic to a world that’s been stripped from it completely. They way it looks, Elemental: Fallen Enchantress seems like a stronghold-like game where magic is used as a resource as well as a boosting material. You can harvest it to boost research and build times, or you can harness it to cast powerful spells that summon tidal waves upon enemies. Check out the diary video below, and take in the might that Elemental holds. The game is set to release sometime towards the end of this summer.
